Ditch the Eye Drops for This “Dry Eyes” FIX!
If you battle dry eyes, I’m sure you’re grateful for the relief eye drops provide…. even if it’s only temporary.
The problem with artificial tears is that they’re nothing like your body’s natural version, which contains multiple layers to keep your eye surface healthy and hydrated.
Even worse, eye drops do nothing to help CORRECT the underlying problem of not producing enough natural tears.
But why settle for temporary relief from dry eyes when you can experience true healing?
A recent study identified a unique nutrient blend that improves tear production and relieves dry eyes.
It really isn’t surprising that the primary mainstream treatment for dry eyes is, well, so shortsighted.
After all, if you never fix the underlying problem, you create a revolving door patient who pays into the system for life.
I take a different approach. I believe the LESS I see my patients, the better job I’m doing. That’s why I focus on correcting the root cause.
And when it comes to dry eyes, the root cause is NEVER a deficiency of artificial tears.
When treating dry eyes, the goal should be to get your body to start making its own natural tears again. New research reveals that a unique blend of nutrients can do precisely that.
In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, researchers compared the effectiveness of two treatments in 155 adults with dry eye disease.
The patients took a placebo or a daily supplement containing lutein, zeaxanthin, curcumin, and vitamin D3 daily for eight weeks.
Compared to the placebo, the supplement group experienced the following results:
- Significant improvements in a test that determines if the eye is producing enough tears to keep it moist (Schirmer’s test)
- Measurable increases in OSDI scores, a test that assesses the symptoms of dry eyes and their impact on vision
- Improvements in tear breakup time values (TBUT), which measure tear film stability
- Substantial improvements in total SPEED score, which tracks the frequency and severity of symptoms over time
In other words, this unique mix of eye-friendly nutrients tackles the ROOT CAUSE of dry eyes to fix them forever.
By restoring natural tear production, you not only address your current symptoms, but you can also expect long-term relief.
P.S. Modern living does a real number on our eyes. Protect your eyesight with this “Super 7” solution.
